Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for supporting an electrosurgical generator (14) and interfacing the generator (14) with an electrosurgical pencil (40, 234, or 254) and a supply of inert gas to allow gas-enhanced electrosurgery. One embodiment generally includes an accessible platform (134) for supporting the generator (14), a receiving area (146) for containing a supply of inert gas, an adaptor (142) for receiving an electrosurgical pencil interconnected with the supply of inert gas, and an interface structure (210) which allows an operator, through use of a control device, to control the flow of gas and electrical output to the pencil. Consequently, existing generators may be used with the present invention to conduct gas-enhanced electrosurgery.
